A Swift and Flowing Renewal by Tim McMeans
Set your screen once. Hold a bank card against the screen and slide until the orange outline matches its width.

This is the photograph at true size, for placing it in your room with your phone. Its sides and back will appear here after the studio capture — we will not invent them.

The surface under moving light

This view is built only from real photographs of the work, each lit from a different angle, so you can move the light yourself and watch the real surface answer. It is being captured in the studio and will appear here. Until then we show nothing rather than an imitation.

Ribbons of blue and slate move across a smoke-stained ground, the paper itself smoke-stained to warm sepia at the edges and left ragged. Fourteen by eighteen. McMeans stains his paper with smoke before he paints on it, so the surface arrives already aged and every clean colour sits on something that has been through fire. The forms here are water rather than animal — one of the few works where he leaves the creature out.
